No excuse for attempting GBH/murder.
If your filtering causes you to come into contact with cars, then you get off your bike and start punching peoples windows, you are probably going to instigate a confrontation of some kind. Sounds like the bike rider has made a wise decision to retire. Two less short fuses on the road; better for everyone. |

It's a normal days riding in Carlisle. Cars move /change lane without the forethought of mirrors. It is the worst place in the world to filter (which is why I don't do it in this City).
